USING YOUR LARDER FRIDGE

When you store foods in the 
Larder Fridge 

The circulation fan (inside of the top of the cavity) is designed to assist a 
more even temperature range on all shelves, however we recommend you 
follow the food storage guidelines below.
Please Note: the circulation fan stops operating when the door is opend 

Upper shelves and door shelves

This is where to store foods which will keep longer if they are kept cool. 
Milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices, hard cheeses, eg. cheddar. Opened jars and 
bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams. Fats, eg, butter, margarine, 
low-fat spreads, cooking fats and lard.

 
Lower shelves

This is where foods which must be cold to keep them safe should be kept: 
•  Raw and uncooked foods should always be wrapped. 
•  Pre-cooked chilled foods, eg. ready meals, meat pies, soft cheeses. 
•  Pre-cooked meats eg. ham. 
•   Prepared salads (including pre-washed chopped, pre-packed mixed 

green salads, rice, potato salad etc).

•   Desserts, eg. fromage frais, home-prepared food and leftovers or 

cream cakes.

 
Salad bin

This is the most humid part of the Fridge. 
Store vegetables, fruit, fresh salad items, eg. unwashed whole lettuce, 
whole tomatoes, radishes, etc here. 
 
WE RECOMMEND THAT ALL PRODUCE 
KEPT IN THE SALAD BIN IS WRAPPED. 
NOTE: ALWAYS WRAP AND STORE 
RAW MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH ON 
THE LOWEST SHELF AT THE BOTTOM 
OF THE FRIDGE. THIS WILL STOP 
THEM DRIPPING ONTO, OR TOUCHING 
OTHER FOODS. 
DO NOT STORE INFLAMMABLE GASES 
OR LIQUIDS IN THE FRIDGE. 

Shopping for chilled foods

Don’t buy in your lunch hour!

Unless you have a Larder Fridge at work to keep the food cold in the 
afternoon. Leaving food in your car or at room temperature for a 
prolonged period of time could raise food temperature to the level at 
which harmful bacteria grow.  
 

Keep chilled foods together

When you are going around the supermarket and when you are travelling 
home. If you keep all the chilled foods together they will help to keep 
each other cold. 

Use a cool bag

Special insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and 
hardware shops. These keep food cold for longer, but are only for getting 
chilled foods home, not storing it.

Unpack as soon as you get home

Always unpack and place chilled foods in the Larder Fridge before storing 
dry food-stuffs.

Tips for keeping food perfect in the  
Larder Fridge

Take extra care with meat and fish

Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to 
avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats on a plate which is large enough 
to collect juices and cover it with cling film or foil.

Leave space around food

This will allow cold air to circulate around the Larder Fridge.

Wrap up food

To prevent transfer of flavours and drying out, food should be separately 
packed or covered.

Let pre-cooked food cool properly

Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put it in the Larder Fridge. 
This will stop the internal temperature of the Larder Fridge from rising. 

Shut the door

To prevent cold air escaping, limit the number of times you open the 
door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your Larder 
Fridge while the door is closed.

Salad bin

This is the most humid part of the Larder Fridge.
Vegetables, fruit, fresh salad items eg. unwashed whole lettuce, 

Prolonged idle periods

If you are going to leave your larder fridge idle for any period of time ( 
Holidays ECT ) please proceed as follows:
Disconnect your larder fridge from the mains supply by removing the 
plug from the wall socket.
Clean and dry the inside as instructed under the heading of cleaning your 
larder fridge.
Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from builing up 
while the larder fridge is not in use.
